JOB DESCRIPTION

YOUR NEXT JOB

You’ve probably heard that it’s a busy market in Brisbane right now; well, it is!  After all, you’re reading this advert….

So now that we’ve established that you’re potentially interested in a new opportunity, let’s tell you about what we’re hiring for at Robert Half, Brisbane.

We’re looking for people to join our team and work to develop & maintain networks within the Brisbane market with people looking to find their next job, whether it be contract or permanent. 

This is not a client-facing sales or business development position, (we’ll talk more about that in a bit) but rather a position for people who want to work purely with candidates looking for a new position. 

You’ll be responsible for engaging with active job seekers as well as cultivating relationships with a passive network.  You’ll work on a desk where you’ll partner with experienced Consultants who will rely on you to provide them with the best people for the job.  This is a crucial position and one where you’ll work together with our client facing Consultants, not for them.  We’re huge believers in working with a collaborative mindset and that your internal brand is equally as important as your external one.

To deliver effectively you’ll conduct interviews either face-to-face or over video, take references, post job adverts, generate leads about activity in the market; and potentially attend job pick-up meetings with your client-facing colleagues; and provide expert, consultative advice to job seekers that you’re working with.

WHO ARE WE?

We could tell you all about our story, how we were founded in 1948 and how we’re the largest specialised staffing agency in the world, and then take you on a long journey, but we would rather tell you about who we are today.

Our Brisbane office is made up of a close-knit group of people who all bring differing strengths and ideas; we believe that everyone has a voice and a say in the direction of the business, and what we’re trying to achieve.  We have a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion with several people in our branch representing us across APAC in our community ensuring that our thoughts and ideas are heard.

Some of us had other careers before recruitment, including retail sales, legal, shipping, accounting, real estate, government, ASX listed regional manager, and call centre.

We come from different backgrounds in terms of education as well as coming from differing parts of the world, and that makes us stronger together. 

But what we all have in common is our desire to work in a team environment where we value collaboration and celebrate each other’s successes as if they were our own, one where we work hard but also genuinely enjoy each other’s company.  We’re also ambitious; not just as individuals but also as a team.  We take pride in our ethical approach and we work hard to provide an outstanding service to our clients and candidates alike. 

We love telling someone that they got the job – thankfully, we get to say that a lot.

WHO ARE YOU?

Well, for a start, you’re a team player.  That’s a non-negotiable for us.

You might be an experienced recruiter looking for a change in environment, or someone with a career behind them that is looking for something new, or even just starting out and looking for a better environment where you can develop your career.  We’re keen to hear from people with varying backgrounds.  You’ll be capable of speaking with, and building relationships with, a myriad of people from different backgrounds.  You will be ethical in your approach, be honest and foster trust.

We’d also like you to have ambition.  This is not a position for someone who just wants to settle.  We want people who want to be a success personally, as well as share our group success.

We’re looking for someone who wants a career, not just a job.  We’re not looking for people just to fill seats, we want people who are eager to learn who have a great attitude.

WHAT’S ON OFFER?

You’ll be working on a busy desk from day one, however that doesn’t mean we expect to you to make placements straight away.  We’re huge on training; it starts the minute you join us, and it’s on-going throughout your career with us.  You’ll have weekly and monthly reviews not just to ensure that you’re on track with what we’d like you to achieve professionally, but also to check in on you personally.  We’ve created a strong team culture and the welfare of the people we work with is at the forefront of our minds. 

In addition, we’re a big believer that you can drive your career forward from wherever you sit within our business.  Some of our staff operate in Management positions purely with a focus on working with people looking for jobs, whereas some take the opportunity to step into a more client facing role.  How you progress is up to you, and something we’ll support you on.  We like to promote from within which means your next role is still very likely to still be with us.

Our Recruiting Specialists are recognised in their own category at our ANZ awards so you’re not competing against BD focused consultants, and we have an ANZ community which includes training, a chance to network across the business, swap tips, and generally get feedback and / or help whenever you need it.

• Flexibility: we understand that life goes on outside of the office
• WFH / hybrid working
• Early finish on Friday
• Working with an experienced leadership team who will support and mentor you to build your career
• Excellent on-going training to help you achieve success
• Wellbeing initiatives for all employees
• Regular social events
• Industry-leading technology
• An attractive salary with generous bonus schemes
• Potential to work in other offices; nationally and internationally
